Miriam K. von Guggenberg is thrilled to direct Camp Brainy Bunch in the Los Altos and Palo alto sites! She graduated summa cum laude from Brandeis University with two B.A.'s: one in Cultural Anthropology, and the other in Fine Arts: Oil Painting. Later, she completed her M.A. in Holistic Counseling Psychology from John F. Kennedy University. Today, Miriam continues her journey inspiring youth as a school-based mental health therapist (Marriage and Family Therapist Intern #90619). Before then, she has worked with the youth for five years as an English Teacher through Teach for America, as a yoga teacher, and as a camp counselor.

Miriam whole-heartedly believes in the holistic model -- from turning an educational lesson into a kinesthetic/creative experience, to helping others communicate their needs and values; it is no wonder she is proud to be a part of Camp Brainy Bunch, an organization that fully embodies this model. Her solution-focused thinking, coupled with her penchant for all things planning and organizing, drive Miriam's excitement to live her passion by working with parents and children at Camp Brainy Bunch this summer!

"Welcome to Camp Brainy Bunch! I truly value connection, and invite your child to connect with educational material in a way that engages their whole body, connect to their silly side through fun and educational games, and connect with themselves in discovering that which they are truly passionate. I am so excited to co-create an environment and culture of creative learning and safe fun! Here's to an inspiring summer!"
